Rosenberg, August 3, 1993 (receivedfor review April 29, 1993) ABSTRACT Infection with the human immunodeficiency sequence (CTLA-4) (34), a protein structurally related to virus type 1 (HIV-1) requires T-cefl activation. Recent studies CD28 but only expressed on T cells after activation (12). have shown that interactions of the T-lymphocyte receptors CTLA-4 acts cooperatively with CD28 to bind B7 and deliver CD28 and CTLA-4 with their counter receptor, B7, on antigen- T-cell costimulatory signals (13). presenting cells are required for optimal T-cell activation. Here Because of the importance of the CD28/CTLA-4 and B7 we show that HIV-1 infection is associated with decreased interactions in immune responses, it is likely that these expression of CD28 and increased expression of B7 on CD4+ interactions are also important during HIV-1 infection. Stud- T-cell lines generated from seropositive donors by afloantigen ies with anti-CD28 monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) suggested stimulation.

Both (14). Groux et al.

The role ofB7 in B7 because these events were blocked by CTLA4Ig, a soluble HIV-1 infection has not been studied, but cultured cell lines form of CTLA-4 that binds B7 with high avidity. In contrast, infected with another human lymphocyte-specific retrovirus, levels ofHIV-1 RNA were not affected by CTLA4Ig, indicating human T-cell lymphotropic virus type 1 (HTLV-1), ex- that regulation of virus transcription in these cultures did not pressed the B7 protein on their surface (16).

Research Article The leukocyte adhesion molecules CD11a/CD18, CD11b/CD18, and CD11c/CD18 (Leu-CAM) are members of the integrin receptor family and mediate crucial adhesion-dependent functions in leukocytes. The molecular basis for their deficient cell surface expression was sought in a patient suffering from severe and recurrent bacterial infections. Previous studies revealed that impaired cell surface expression of Leu-CAM is secondary to heterogeneous structural defects in the common beta subunit (CD18). Cloning and sequencing of complementary DNA encoding for CD18 in this patient revealed two mutant alleles, each representing a point mutation in the coding region of CD18 and resulting in an amino acid substitution. Each mutant allele results in impaired CD18 expression on the cell surface membrane of transfected COS M6 cells. One substitution involves an arginine residue (Arg593----cysteine) that is conserved in the highly homologous fourth cysteine-rich repeats of other mammalian integrin subfamilies. The other substitution involves a lysine residue (Lys196----threonine) located within another highly conserved region in integrins. These data identify crucial residues and regions necessary for normal cell surface expression of CD18 and possibly other integrin beta subunits and define a molecular basis for impaired cell surface expression of CD18 in this patient.

Davis2,Adrian Whitty3, Jonathan M. Green4, Andrey S. Shaw1,ArthurWeiss5 and Michael L. Dustin5,6 Published online: 19 November 2001, DOI: 10.1038/ni737 According to the two-signal model of T cell activation, costimulatory molecules augment T cell receptor (TCR) signaling, whereas adhesion molecules enhance TCR–MHC-peptide recognition.The structure and binding properties of CD28 imply that it may perform both functions, blurring the distinction between adhesion and costimulatory molecules. Our results show that CD28 on naïve T cells does not support adhesion and has little or no capacity for directly enhancing TCR–MHC- peptide interactions. Instead of being dependent on costimulatory signaling, we propose that a key function of the immunological synapse is to generate a cellular microenvironment that favors the interactions of potent secondary signaling molecules, such as CD28. The T cell receptor (TCR) interaction with complexes of peptide and as CD2 and CD48, which suggests that CD28 might have a dual role as major histocompatibility complex (pMHC) is central to the T cell an adhesion and a signaling molecule4.

Immunization with such engineered resident tumor cells is frequently the result of inadequate tumor cells generates potent tumor-specific CD4+ T cells that generation of tumor-specific T cells. Specific activation of T facilitate rejection and confer immunologic memory to high- cells occurs after delivery of two signals by the antigen- dose challenges of wild-type neoplastic cells. These results presenting cell. The first signal is antigen-specific and is the demonstrate the critical role ofthe B7 costimulatory pathway engagement of the T-cell antigen receptor by a specific major in stimulating tumor-specific CD4+ T cells and provide an histocompatiblity complex antigen-peptide complex. For some attractive strategy for enhancing tumor immunity. T cells, the second or costimulatory signal is the interaction of the T-cell CD28 receptor with the B7 activation molecule of the antigen-presenting cell.
